Crucial Redis Monitoring Metrics You Must Watch

Scalegrid

JANUARY 25, 2024

Key Takeaways Critical performance indicators such as latency, CPU usage, memory utilization, hit rate, and number of connected clients/slaves/evictions must be monitored to maintain Redis’s high throughput and low latency capabilities. Similarly, an increased throughput signifies an intensive workload on a server and a larger latency.

Reconstructing a streaming session was a tedious and time consuming process that involved tracing all interactions (requests) between the Netflix app, our Content Delivery Network (CDN), and backend microservices. Our engineering teams tuned their services for performance after factoring in increased resource utilization due to tracing.

As developers, we rightfully obsess about the customer experience, relentlessly working to squeeze every millisecond out of the critical rendering path, optimize input latency, and eliminate jank. At the limit, statically generated, edge delivered, and HTML-first pages look like the optimal strategy. Stay tuned for more in 2022!

Next, we’ll look at how to set up servers and clients (that’s the hard part unless you’re using a content delivery network (CDN)). Using just a few (but still more than one), however, could nicely balance congestion growth with better performance, especially on high-speed networks. Servers and Networks. What Does It All Mean?
